Souplantation's Joan's Broccoli Madness Salad (Sweet Tomato's)

Recipe #288835 | 15 min | 5 min prep | add private note

I had this at a chain salad bar style restaurant in FL called Sweet Tomato's and found it on-line. Souplantation is another name for the chain. It was yummy. I make bacon in the microwave to save time and for easy clean up. If you use precooked baxon bits, this is a no-cook recipe. I think freshly crisped bacon is best but the other will do.

We like this salad too. Great combination of flavors. I use only half of the dressing...just enough to coat the ingredients. Very tastey.

    Perfect!!! However, I would start with 3 TBS of Apple Cider. At the restaurant it is more fluid than creamy. And. if the dressing sets up in the fridge..then just hit it with a few more drops of ACV and shake/stir and you are good to go!! But, other than that...spot on!!! PS: Always make sure you use fresh, not frozen or stored Brocoli. The crunchiness of the Veg is the highlight of the experience.

    Love this recipe, I started mixing up the ingredients and putting the dressing in a squirt bottle, that way I can just portion out what I want and add as much dressing as I like and it lasts a wee bit longer in the fridge.
